Many synthetic organic compounds and antibiotics have been found to have the ability to kill fungi and several of them have been commercialized for use as agricultural and horticultural fungicides. However, two big problems have arisen that require early solution: one is that some fungi have acquired resistance to these compounds, and the other problem is that these fungicides will cause environmental pollution if they are used in large quantities.
The present invention is the result of our extensive studies to develop a compound that has a novel basic structure and exhibits high efficacy even if it is used in a small amount as an effective ingredient.
One object of the present invention is to provide a novel ketal compound which is highly effective against pathogenic fungi while having little toxic effect on cultivated plants, and a process for producing said compound.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for controlling pathogenic fungi on plants or in soil by use of said compound.
Further objects will become clear from the following descriptions.
The present invention relates to ketal compounds of formula (I): ##STR3## wherein X is a halogen atom, a trifluoromethyl group or a lower alkyl group; Y is a halogen atom, a lower alkyl group or a lower alkyloxy group; m and n each independently are an integer of 0 to 2, and when m or n is 2, the plurality of each of X or Y may have the same or different meanings; R1 and R2 independently represent a saturated or unsaturated lower hydrocarbon residue, or R1 and R2 together form a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene chain such as ##STR4## which alkylene chain forms a cyclic structure including ##STR5## to which they are attached. The present invention also relates to a process for producing such ketal compounds, and an agricultural and horticultural fungicide containing one or more of these ketal compounds as an effective ingredient.
The compound of formula (I) is novel and exhibits high efficacy against diseases affecting cultivated plants. However, this compound is by no means toxic to humans, animals and fish, and causes no adverse effects on cultivated plants.
The compound of formula (I) used in a horticultural fungicide has both preventive and curative effects against a wide spectrum of pathogenic fungi such as Phycomycetes, Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes and Deuteromycetes. The compound is particularly efficaceous against powdery mildew, rust diseases, downy mildew and seedling damping-off which affect cultivated plants.
The production of the compound of formula (I) starts with a known benzophenone derivative (II) (see, for example, Japanese Patent Laid Open Public No. 139306/80): ##STR6## wherein X, Y, m and n have the same meanings as defined above. This starting material is reacted with a suitable halogenating agent such as thionyl chloride, thionyl bromide or phosphorus pentachloride in the absence or presence of an inert solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, toluene, tetrahydrofuran, diisopropyl ether or dioxane. The resulting reaction product is then reacted with a corresponding alcohol. By this procedure, the desired compound (I) can be easily obtained in high yield. The reaction with the corresponding alcohol can be carried out smoothly by using a suitable acid acceptor such as triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dialkylaniline, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or sodium alkoxide. In this second reaction, an inert solvent as mentioned above may be used.
Some of the compounds of formula (I) thus prepared have asymmetric carbon atoms in their structure, and obviously, they are obtained as different optical stereoisomers. More specifically, if R1 and R2 combine to form a cyclic structure, namely the dioxolane structure having a substituent such as an alkyl group at 4-position, the carbons at 4- and 2-position are respectively asymmetric.
The optical stereoisomers of compound (I) can be resolved and isolated by a suitable known technique. These optical isomers are also included in the scope of the present invention.
The production of compounds of formula (I) is illustrated by the following examples of synthesis.

The following comparative compounds are those described in Japanese Patent Laid Open Public No. 72825-78, which will be used hereafter in Experiments. ##STR31##
The compounds of the present invention thus prepared have systemic effects on plants, so they can be applied in various manners to treat the stem and foliage of plants over the ground, seeds, the surface of water, and the soil.
The compounds of the present invention have no adverse effects on the cultivated plants to be treated, so they can be used either before or after sowing or at any stage of the plant growth whether it is a juvenile seedling, in the midst of growth or in the fruiting stage.
The compounds of the present invention may be used alone, or in combination, without mixing with other ingredients. But in order to provide greater convenience, they may be mixed with various solid or liquid agricultural carriers so as to formulate wettable powders, emulsions, oils, dusts, granules or suspension concentrates. These formulations may be further supplemented with adjuvants such as dispersants, diluents, emulsifiers, spreaders, wetting agents, adsorbents, thickeners, anti-foaming agents and anti-freezing agents. The solids and liquid carriers may be used either alone or in combination. Illustrative carriers include talc, clay, bentonite, kaolin, diatomaceous earth, calcium carbonate, woodmeal, starch, gum arabic, water, alcohol, kerosene, naphtha, xylene, cyclohexanone, methylnaphthalene, benzene, acetone, dimethylformamide, glycol ether and N-methylpyrrolidone.
Suitable adjuvants include polyoxyethylene alkylphenyl ether, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate, ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer, lignin sulfonate, sorbitan esters, soaps, sulfated oils, alkyl sulfate esters, petroleum sulfonates, dioctyl sulfo-succinates, alkylbenzensulfonates, aliphatic amine salts, quaternary ammonium salts, alkyl pyridinium salts, alkylaminoethyl glycine, alkyldimethyl betaine, polyglycol sulfate esters, alkylamine sulfonic acid, isopropyl phosphate, carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, hydroxypropyl cellulose, ethylene glycol and xanthan gum.

In order to achieve a wide spectrum of effects, the compounds may be used in combination with fertilizers or other fungicides or agrochemicals such as herbicides, plant growth regulators, insecticides and acaricides.
The concentrations of the compounds of the present invention and the relevant amounts to be applied should vary with many factors such as the season, weather, method of application, type of formulation, the location of use, the disease to be combatted and the crop plant to be treated. Generally, the concentrations of the compounds are in the range of 0.5 to 1,000 ppm, preferably 3 to 500 ppm. The amounts of the compounds applied generally range from 0.5 to 500 g, preferably from 1 to 250 g, for 10 ares.
The efficacy of the compounds of the present invention as agricultural and horticultural fungicides will become apparent by reading the following results of experiments.
PAC Test for Control on Powdery Mildew of Cucumber (Protective Effect)A biscuit pot with a diameter of 15 cm was filled with horticultural granular soil, and ten seeds of Takasago strain cucumber were sown. After cultivation under greenhouse conditions for 10 days, the juvenile seedlings with cotyledon were tested.
These seedlings were sprayed with a dose of 15 ml per pot of a wettable powder of Formulation 2 described below which had been diluted with water at a predetermined concentration. After air drying, the seedlings were inoculated with a suspension of conidiospores of Sphaerotheca fuliginea by spraying it on the foliage of the seedlings. Then, the cultivation was effected at a temperature of from 23° to 26°C for 10 days, and the seedlings were checked for the occurrence and severity of infection in terms of percent infection calculated as follows.
First, on the basis of the percentage of infected area, the test seedlings were rated on the following infection index of from 0 to 5.
| ______________________________________ |
| Infection |
| index Condition of the leaf |
| ______________________________________ |
| 0 No infected area on leaf surface |
| 1 Infected area of less than 10% on leaf surface |
| 2 Infected area of less than 30% on leaf surface |
| 3 Infected area of less than 60% on leaf surface |
| 4 Infected area of less than 80% on leaf surface |
| 5 Infected area not less than 80% on leaf surface |
| ______________________________________ |
Percent infection was calculated from the Infection indexes thus obtained according to the following equation: ##EQU1##
Percent protection was obtained by comparing the percent infections (P.I.) of untreated seedlings and treated seedlings, according to the following equation: ##EQU2##
The results are shown in Table 2.

A biscuit pot with a diameter of 12 cm was filled with horticultural granular soil known by the name of "Arakida", and 15 grains of wheat (Norin No. 61 strain) were seeded. Then cultivation was effected under greenhouse conditions for 12 days and the juvenile seedlings at the one-leaf stage were used for the following tests.
These seedlings were inoculated by spraying with a suspension of conidiospores of Erysiphe graminis, and after allowing to stand for one day at 20°-23°C under greenhouse conditions, were sprayed with a dose of 15 ml of wettable powder of Formulation 2 described below which had been diluted with water at a predetermined concentration. After air drying, the seedlings were cultivated at 20°-24°C under greenhouse conditions for 10 days and checked for the occurrence and severity of infection.
Infection index, percent infection and percent protection were determined as in Experiment 1.
The results are shown in Table 5 below.

A biscuit pot with a diameter of 12 cm was filled with commercial horticultural soil (Kureha Kagaku, Tokyo, Japan), ten seeds of cucumber (Ochiai-aonagafushinari strain) were sown and cultivated under greenhouse conditions for 10 days. The juvenile seedlings with cotyledon were sprayed with an emulsifiable concentrate of the compound of this invention which had been diluted with water at a predetermined concentration so that the surface of leaves are fully wetted with the sprayed emulsion of Formulation 7. Then, the seedlings were cultivated under greenhouse conditions for two days, and inoculated with a suspension of conidiospores of Pseudoperonospora cubensis by spraying it as an aqueous suspension. The treated seedlings were allowed to stand at 21°-22°C in a humid atmosphere for 3 days, cultivated at 21°-22°C under the light of fluorescent lamps, and checked for the occurrence and severity of infection in terms of percent infection calculated as follows.
First, on the basis of the percentage of infected area, the test seedlings were rated on the infection index of from 0 to 5.
| ______________________________________ |
| Infection |
| index Condition of the leaf |
| ______________________________________ |
| 0 No infected area on leaf surface |
| 1 Infected area of less than 10% on leaf surface |
| 2 Infected area of less than 30% on leaf surface |
| 3 Infected area of less than 60% on leaf surface |
| 4 Infected area of less than 80% on leaf surface |
| 5 Infected area not less than 80% on leaf surface |
| ______________________________________ |
Second, on the basis of the infection indexes, percent infection was calculated by the following equation: ##EQU3##
Then, percent protection was calculated on the basis of the equation below. ##EQU4##

A Neubauer pot was filled with field soil, and pathogenic soil in which Pythium aphanidernatum had been cultivated was blended with the field soil in a layer of a depth of 2 cm in the pot to inoculate the soil with the pathogenic fungus. The pot was allowed to stand at 28°C under super humid conditions for 24 hours in a greenhouse, and subjected to soil injection treatment at a predetermined dose level with wettable powder of Formulation 4 described below which has been diluted with water. Ten seeds of cucumber (Ochiai-aonagafushinari strain) were sown and lightly covered with the same field soil. After two week cultivation under greenhouse conditions, the seedlings were checked for the occurrence of infection, and the good seedling rate was calculated by the following equation: ##EQU5##
